XAION DATA Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Yasuhide Sato), an AI data platform provider, has proposed a new data strategy called 'DO4AI (Data Orchestration for AI)' as a solution to the structural challenges where AI implementation remains stuck in the PoC (Proof of Concept) stage.
Based on the philosophy of 'No Data, No AI,' this proposal redefines the data infrastructure that serves as the source of competitive advantage for companies in the AI era and demonstrates a concrete approach to achieving AX (AI Transformation) in practical business operations.
### Data Infrastructure that is Not 'AI Ready' Hinders AI Utilization
In the AI era, data is not merely an accumulation of information but the greatest source of competitive advantage that determines a company's fate. For AI to provide value, it is essential that data is 'AI Ready'—meaning it is appropriately structured, integrated, and maintained in the latest state so it can be utilized for decision-making. However, in reality, many companies have data that was not designed with AI in mind, leading to a situation where 'data exists but is unusable.' Consequently, while AI may show results in the PoC stage, it is not integrated into actual operations or continuous value creation.
XAION DATA has identified four walls and eight Key Success Factors (KSFs) hindering AX, concluding that data infrastructure that is not AI Ready is the fundamental structural issue.
### The New Data Strategy: 'DO4AI (Data Orchestration for AI)'
DO4AI is a unique approach to solving these structural issues. Rather than an extension of traditional data integration, it is a strategy that redesigns data infrastructure by working backward from the state where 'AI generates value.' While conventional infrastructures were built for business processing and visualization, DO4AI redesigns the entire process from data generation to utilization on the premise of continuous value creation by AI.
The core of this strategy is the integration of Closed Data (proprietary company data) and Open Data (market-facing data). By integrating these with respect to meaning, relationships, and currency, companies can build an environment where AI can understand and utilize data in real-time.
### Technological Foundations Supporting DO4AI
The DO4AI platform incorporates three world-class core technologies:
1. **Automatic Data Structure Mapping:** Automatically analyzes meanings and relationships between dispersed data to achieve schema integration.
2. **Multi-dimensional Data Structuring:** Converts diverse data, including unstructured and semi-structured formats, into multi-layered structures understandable by AI.
3. **Open Data Collection and Integration:** Continuously collects and integrates vast amounts of external web data to ensure real-time relevance.
These are implemented through proprietary systems:
- **WEB VISION (Patented):** Automatically collects and structures unstructured web data. It automates information extraction and formatting that previously required manual labor.
- **XD Foundry (Patent Pending):** Integrates internal business data horizontally across systems, solving the 'data exists but is unusable' problem by unifying definitions and granularity.
### What DO4AI Achieves
Unlike traditional methods that collect and process data before integration, DO4AI is designed with AI utilization in mind from the data generation stage, enabling highly automated structuring and integration for continuous AI-driven decision-making.
